    Best Photographer Ever!!

    Hire Rachael. She put us at ease right away, captured all the sweet little in-between moments, and gave us great direction without making it feel too pressured or pose-y. We did both engagement and wedding photos with Rachael and I could not be happier with how everything came out. Her editing style just enhances everything without making things feel fake or overly edited - she just makes all the beautiful things pop. I think the photos speak for themself, and I hope to be able to work with Rachael more in the future on all our big life events.

    Absolutely Amazing

    To put it bluntly - Rachel is both incredibly talented and an absolute dream to work with!
    When we first met her for the engagement shoot, we were pretty nervous. That lasted about 30-seconds, because she was so excited to shoot with us and so wonderfully engaging that she made us feel both comfortable and excited. We jumped right in and ended up getting so many incredible shots that we struggled to narrow them down in the end! And for the wedding?! UGH - the photos are beyond words. I still - 3.5 months later - pull them up pretty regularly to scroll through and feel the excitement all over again. She captured the elegance, the small details, and - most importantly - the human experience. You can literally feel the emotion of our wedding through Rachel's work.
    I couldn't recommend her more strongly. You won't just have an amazing photographer on your side, you might just make yourself a new friend :)

    Rachael is the absolute best photographer I could have ever imagined. Every single picture from our wedding was gorgeous and she captured every detail, personality, and emotion from that day perfectly. She is a genuinely wonderful person and has a way of making everyone comfortable and happy. I can't say enough about how much we loved working with her - if you're in search of a photographer, you can't get any better than Rachael and Binford Creative.

I would highly recommend Binford Creative to anyone who is looking!

    Rachael is seriously the most fantastic, talented, wonderful photographer you could ever hope to have shoot your wedding. My husband and I got married in September, and we are so thankful Rachael was our photographer. She also did our engagement photos, and holy cow, they are gorgeous. Our wedding photos are absolutely magical. Rachael captured every special moment, and every picture is beautiful. They are everything I had ever hoped for -- and pictures are very important to me. I'm thrilled I can look back at all of these gorgeous pictures and be transported back to my wedding day.

    Not only is Rachael incredibly talented, she also is an absolute joy to be around! When my husband and I first met her for our engagement photos, she instantly put both of us at ease. We immediately felt like she was an old friend - which was so wonderful during our wedding, because we just relaxed and had an amazing time knowing we were in good hands. Rachael is so much fun, so sweet, hilarious, organized, creative, and on top of things. She's also a ninja! You look up, she's in front of you snapping pictures, you look away for a second and she's across the room. My husband even said, "Wow, she's like a ninja!" Bottom line, Rachael is amazing and my husband and I wouldn't have wanted anyone else as our photographer. I am so blessed my wedding planner suggested her! My wedding and engagement pictures are everything I ever dreamed they would be thanks to this incredible lady. Rachael - you are so wonderful! Thank you for everything!!!

    Describing our experience with Racheal is difficult, but here goes nothing. It is said that few will remember what you say, but they will remember how you made them feel. I can honestly say, my wedding day had memorable moments my guests are not likely to forget. Our venue was located in a 100-year floodplain, and we were fortunate enough to pick the day of the 100-year storm. I absolutely mean fortunate. The amazing display of love and community we had the pleasure of witnessing made it all the more special. Despite the hazards, road closures, added stress, tornadoes, and general risk to personal safety, Racheal was there to capture the beautiful mess of our wedding. Racheal was our rock in the literal storm.

    For those of you who have not had the pleasure of meeting her, she is charming, witty, offbeat, and persistently optimistic. Racheal was somehow able to wrangle the chaos through her lens and capture our night in incredible detail. The staged pictures were exactly what we hoped, but her candid shots are what keep us tearing up as we relive the night. As if all of this is not enough, her personal skills with both young and old had our guests wondering if Racheal was a close family friend.

    Racheal is an incredible photographer, but more importantly an incredible person. She helped turn a day of murphy’s law into a happy memory we have the pleasure of reliving. We are very grateful for her and know you will be to.

    Rachael was hands-down the best decision we made for our wedding! She was not only a very talented, professional photographer, but acted as our friend throughout the entire wedding process. She made sure everything was super low-stress for us, from when we booked with her until the wedding. She gave us recommendations on other great vendors she's worked with and advice anytime we needed it. Rachael was flexible and accommodating with all of the timing the day of the wedding and was great at managing our family and friends during formal photos, all while being pregnant! She went above and beyond with our pictures, sending us over 700 amazing photos of our special day.

    Rachael did our engagement session in May of 2015 and we were in love with them (and her!) She is so easy going and funny that she makes anyone feel at ease! She is also incredibly talented!!! I could not wait for her to shoot our wedding! She is extremely professional, organized, and prompt with email responses. When she arrived on the day of the wedding, she got right to work getting detail shots. Everything was so planned out! Even the dreaded formal family photos went smoothly! I have found my lifelong photographer!

    Rachel was very flexible, we re-booked a photography session due to weather which she suggested even. We hired her for engagement photos, bridals, and our wedding. The engagement photos were tough due to the location and heat but Rachel was in a good mood the whole time and had great ideas for photos and they turned out wonderful. The bridals were beautiful, she has an eye for lighting and scenery. Rachel was recommended by my wedding planner and since they've worked together before they were able to work a lot of the details together without my involvement (which I loved!)

    I've been trying to come up with the words to write this review, and just cannot put them together in an appropriate way...so, take this review and multiply it by a million. Binford Creative was absolutely perfect. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rachael (lead photographer). Her photography is hands down perfect. It's beautiful and whimsical and candid and fun and all-encompassing. But, to top it all off, she is professional, flexible, a client-pleaser, generous with her time, sooo talented, calm and collected, attentive, organized and LOVES her job. She's not one of those that is good at her job and then leaves. She is passionate about photography and people, and she completely lives and loves her career. We honestly were so very blessed to have her be a part of our engagement and wedding. We will not be going to any other photographer for family photos or kid photos down the road, Binford Creative is our place from now on. (Rachael don't ever stop this business, we will have to hunt you down! haha) I have recommended Binford Creative to my best friend that just got engaged, and wouldn't want to see her use anyone else. I highly recommend this company for everyone that wants high-quality, sweet, fun and REAL photographs of their happiest day ever. :) Thank you Rachael and Binford Creative! You made everything fun instead of stressful, and most of all, memorable and perfect!

    I got married on June 20, 2015 and used Rachael for my engagement pics and on my wedding day. She was wonderful! Not only was Rachael flexible, reliable and easy to work with, she has a unique way of capturing pictures and making you feel comfortable. She listened to my ideas and also provided some of her own. I would recommend her for any occasion!

    I LOVED working with Rachael. I had the great pleasure of working a recent wedding with Rachael and have to say she was amazingly professional, organized, detailed oriented, and passionate about her art. Our initial call to prepare for the wedding day was both productive and fun. She was easy going yet on top of every detail with a photo shot list to make it easier on me when creating the timeline. On the day of the wedding, she was prompt and did whatever was needed to get important shots for the bride and groom. She worked her magic to get a ring shot on top of a dog's nose. It was freaking awesome! And can I say, I love her style. She is confident and definitely one of a kind. I highly recommend Rachael!!

    Words cannot describe what a joy it was to work with Rachael! I knew I wanted her to be my wedding photographer before I was even engaged due to her beautiful, natural photography. I knew I did not want stiff, overly posed photographs, so I knew Rachael was the perfect fit!!! She is professional, enthusiastic, has an easy going and fun attitude, and has a true talent! She truly captures special moments, and we will cherish and relive all those moments for years and years to come! From the beginning, Rachael was always responsive, flexible, and kept an open line of communication about all upcoming sessions to make sure we were on the same page! She helped pick out locations, helped with what to wear for our engagement photos, and always made me feel at ease in front of the camera! My now-husband and I were pretty nervous about our engagement session, but before we knew it, we were laughing and having a blast, despite the Texas heat :) The photos turned out beautiful and I feel like she truly captured our personalities through the pictures! Same goes for my bridal portraits - she made me feel relaxed and helped me have fun during my session while capturing timeless, gorgeous photos. As for the day of the wedding, Rachael helped make everything run smoothly and on time! She went down that list that we collaborated on together and made sure she didn't miss a beat! Even our family members and other vendors commented on her professionalism, talent and easy-going attitude! Working with someone you trust to capture one of the most important days of your life is very important, and I could not happier that we worked with Rachael as our photographer.

    Rachael was one of the best parts of our wedding. She made us feel comfortable and at ease in our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. The photos were completed in a timely fashion and are really really good. All communication pre and post wedding was responsive and professional. We feel lucky to have had her shoot our wedding.

    We loved Rachael and all the work she did for us. Houston based, she did my cultural Malay bridal shower photos, she did our engagement photos in New York City (where my husband was living) in Central Park and they were absolutely magical! Beautiful. Then traveled to Jekyll Island to do our destination wedding and was just so accommodating as well as her husband David who helped out a lot. Great couple, great vibes, after being around them so much I consider them now friends.

    Rachael is amazing! The pictures are amazing. We got our wedding, bridals and engagement done through her. We are going to continue to be a client forever! She is fun, relaxed, prompt etc etc, everything you would want if you were getting married. We are no models by any means and she made us look real good.

    Rachael and her team at Binford Creative were absolutely amazing! She is such a doll and made everyone feel at ease. The pictures of my wedding and reception are stunning! I sat down to write a list of my favorites to get framed and ended up with a whole sheet full! She has an AMAZING knack at capturing perfect moments. My wedding day was such a blur, but thanks to Binford Creative, I not only get to relive my memories of the day, but also see what everyone else was up to while I was getting ready! The pictures of the wedding party getting ready are priceless, especially my three young nieces who were the flower girls. She was able to capture the most beautiful, playful images of them. The most amazing thing to me is although I knew she was there, I never saw her. She and her team did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend them. I cannot wait to have them capture the next special event for our new family! Thanks so much!

    Binford Creative traveled from Houston to Austin for our wedding. They were absolutely wonderful to work with, and completely went above and beyond our expectations. From the time they began taking pictures of us individually getting ready for the wedding, up to our departure at the end of the night, their energy was fun, reassuring, extremely positive, and excited!
    They were very professional and totally ninja discrete during the more intimate parts of the ceremony, some of the time i didn't even realize they were there shooting, until after i saw the beautiful candid pictures they got... so awesome!
    Rachael Accommodated all our requests and provided great suggestions. When it came time to take family pictures after the ceremony, she was super organized and had everyone pictured and back to the reception in great time.
    Within just a few days of the wedding, she posted a sneak peak of highlights for us to see. We were si happy, the pictures are fantastic, just absolutely AMAZING! All our family and friends have loved the images.
    Rachael & David did a great job capturing every aspect of the wedding, my husband and I can pretty much relive our wedding day through their photos! The pictures they took are such a beautiful reminder of our special day, they totally captured everything we felt!

    If there was 10 starts, Binford would get all of them. Rachel is by far the most talented photographer I have ever worked with. She is so responsive and professional. Her work is purely artistic. She is on top of things and organized. She made my wedding day into a lifetime of memories with her pictures. I will never use another photographer again!

    We were absolutely thrilled to work with Rachael Binford on our wedding day. Leading up to our event she was superbly organized and instantly friendly. Rachael possesses an easy going, compassionate nature that enabled us stop sweating the small stuff and just be plain excited about the big day. And when that day arrived, Rachael was like valium-incarnate-- utterly calm, friendly, collected, and flexible, not to mention her ninja skills: I swear she'd be on one side of the altar taking a shot, I'd blink and she'd be shooting square across the lawn! Our photos arrived in the mail exactly when she said they would. All of the photos were stunning in clarity and composition. I loved her candid photos the most of all. Thank you Rachael for sharing our special day with us!

    Binford Creative Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much for trusting us with your photos! You two were so wonderful to work with and are a perfect example of why we love what we do so much! Thank you!

    Binford Creative did our engagement photos in October. We could not have been more happy with the entire experience. We were both nervous, but our Photographer, Rachael put us at ease, helped us relax and have a good time and enjoy the moment.
    We truly cherish the images and felt she was really able to capture who we are as a couple. Can't wait to have Binford Creative photograph our wedding and other special events in our future.
    I would highly recommend based on both professionalism and creative vision.

    If I could give 6 stars, I would! Binford Creative gave us the most beautiful collection of photos on a day that just blew past!
    Rachael captured so many awesome action shots at the ceremony and reception- and I don't even remember her being there! After going to numerous weddings where the photographers step in the aisles and block the guests views, I was so pleased that her awesome equipment allowed her to blend in and still capture intimate up close shots!
    We had bridal party, ceremony, and reception photos. The lighting and colors look amazing in both the posed and action frames. The results look as magical as I felt. She did a stellar job with our San Francisco outdoor/ indoor wedding- and at an awesome price.
    Hands down- Binford Creative is the best!

    Rachael did an amazing job for my husband and I's 5th Anniversary pictures. She was so professional and came up with some amazing poses and fun props for us to use. We had a blast working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone. Can't wait to work with her again!!
